And you do realise that, just because you stop someone drowning, you don't have to marry them. I certainly didn't marry any of the blokes I rescued, ... wait, I think I know where I might have gone wrong ...

Hi @gadgetman It was a moment of madness I do agree. I was just so traumatised by being thrown into that washing machine that was the Nile, I felt I needed to show him my gratitude.....He did turn out all right though, once I got him to wear shoes when he went to the supermarket in London and once he learnt that there is something else beside beer. I wasn't too impressed when he downed a bottle of Cloudy Bay in one go though.....

I too did learn quite young that there were other things beside beer. Things like chips/crisps, peanuts and pickled onions.
